At Yeungjin University in Daegu

A boy was walking through the corridor. He had silver hair with an angelic face. His face and appearance screamed elegance and innocence. Everyone was looking at him. It's not because he's the most beautiful person they've ever seen. But you know there's a saying that people find perfection to be imperfect. That's why everyone was whispering, gawking at him.

"I heard the psycho is going to a new university," a girl told her friends.

"Really? How did you know?" one of her friends asked her excitedly.

"I heard Professor Lee talking to Professor Hyun about it."

"Ah! What a relief... Finally, we can get rid of him. Pathetic."

The boy paid no attention to them. This was a normal scene for him. He just made his way to the Dean's office without batting an eyelash at anyone there. But not everything happens the way we want, right?

Suddenly, someone blocked his way. He raised his head and looked at the person who was smirking at him.

' This is gonna take a long time,' he sighed, looking at the boy named Seo Yoonhoon.

"So the oh-so-great nerd is going away from here to a new college," Yoonhoon chuckled as if he had just said something really funny. Now all the people in the corridor were looking at them.

"I feel sorry for you. After all, who's gonna befriend you? All you've got is your looks. You'll be alone there too," he said, wanting to rile Taehyung up.

Students laughed at that. No one in the school liked him. Just because of one incident, he became the psycho of the school. But it didn't matter to him. Why would it, when he had his loving noona to tell him otherwise?

"If you're done, can I go now?" he asked. Everyone was shocked because the angelic boy had never talked with anyone before, not even the teachers. His voice was calm and deep, just like his appearance — it was perfect. Seeing everyone frozen in their place, he started to walk again to his destined place.

He walked to the Dean's office and knocked twice, waiting for permission. When he heard "come in," he entered and saw his noona sitting there. Closing the door, he went towards his noona and stood by her side.

"Kim Taehyung, you're going away from here. It's such a relief," the Dean muttered under his breath and sighed in relief.

"The hell? What do you mean by 'it's a relief'?" the young lady who had heard what he whispered asked, her voice rising with anger.

"I'm sorry, Miss Heejin, but he was becoming a headache to me. A lot of parents complained to me about him bullying others, but I just ignored them because you are a great person. But I don't think I can handle it any longer," Mr. Ye, the Dean, told her softly in an attempt not to anger her.

"Bully? Him? My baby bear? Are you fucking crazy? He's the most innocent person you could ever know, and you're telling me that he's a bully?" Heejin laughed angrily because she knew Taehyung very well. Seeing her going into her rage mode, Taehyung quickly knelt on the floor and held her hand.

"Noona, don't be angry. You know I don't like it when you're angry," he said softly, not wanting to upset her more.

"But bear, you're not like that. Yo—" her words got cut off by the Dean.

"Miss Jeon, don't forget about what he did two years ago. Just because of him, a boy lost his life. Did you forget it? He's a mur—"

"SHUT UP! SHUT THE FUCK UP! DON'T YOU DARE SAY ANYTHING FURTHER! IT WASN'T HIM. HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT HIM? NOTHING. I came here to get him out of this damn place, not to hear bullshit about him. So I kindly request you to proceed with your damn work instead of talking bullshit," Heejin shouted, but when she saw Taehyung going pale, she instantly calmed down and gave her attention to him.

"Baby, don't pay attention to him. You know it's not true. For me, please don't think about it," Heejin started to panic when she saw he was going to have a trigger attack. The only person that could calm him down wasn't here, and she couldn't tell what happened to Tae to that person because of the promise she made to her baby bear. So she hugged him and whispered sweet nothings to calm him down, hoping for the best. To her luck, he calmed down afterward.

Meanwhile, the Dean was looking at them dumbfounded because he didn't know what just happened to Taehyung, and from the way Heejin acted, he could tell it wasn't something small. But when he was going to ask her about it, a glare from Heejin shut his mouth, and he started to do the needful work.

After getting his papers, Taehyung and Heejin exited the office and started to go towards the entrance of the university. Heejin was holding her bear's bag and his hand. To everyone, Taehyung may be a reserved adult, but to her, he's still the baby he was years ago that needed to be loved and cared for.

As they were walking, everyone's attention was on them. You know people really can't mind their own business. So they started to talk about who was the girl holding his hand.

"Who is the girl holding hands with him?"

"Maybe his girlfriend."

"Nope. I think it's his sugar mommy."

"Yeah, if not, how could he afford such beautiful clothes? His parents are dead."

"You know what? I think he's the one who murdered them. Crazy psycho!"

"His parents must be ashamed of him."

Heejin heard all of those mean comments. When she tried to shout at them, a small voice stopped her.

"Noona, I wanna go h-home please..."

So she glared at all the people surrounding them and started to walk again. But someone stopped them.

"Hmm... So you're his sugar mommy," Yoon Hoon said, chuckling. "He must have threatened or blackmailed you to become his sugar momma, right?" Everyone chuckled at that.

"Why? Are you sad because you couldn't be his sugar daddy?" Heejin taunted, smirking.

"Who wants to be his sugar daddy? I pity you. A beautiful girl like you has to be with a psycho!"

Just then, everyone gasped as Heejin slapped Yoon Hoon across the face with the back of her hand. Grabbing his collar, she said, "D.O.N.'T E.V.E.R C.A.L.L H.I.M T.H.A.T! You got it? He's not a fucking psycho. Neither of you is worthy enough to be in the same place as him, yet you got the nerve to talk shit about him. All of you are just peasants in his presence. So shut your rotten mouths."

She grabbed Tae's hand again and started to move. But she suddenly turned and smirked.

"Prepare your last will; it will be needed very soon. And another thing, I'm his noona. So goodbye, you fucking shits."

At Tae and Heejin's house

When Heejin came back after parking the car, Taehyung had locked himself in his room. He was silent on the way to their house, except for the little sniffles. Heejin was worried because if this continued, Tae would have a trigger or anxiety attack. The only person who could stop that from happening was far away from here and oblivious to the things happening at school. If he ever got to know this... Well, she didn't even want to think about it.

So she went to the kitchen and put some homemade chocolate chip cookies and a piece of strawberry shortcake on a tray and made hot chocolate for both of them. All of these were her baby bear's favorite sweets to eat; whenever he was happy, sad, or scared, he wanted them. So she thought this would help to calm the boy down. She grabbed the tray and made her way to Taehyung's room.

The door was still locked. So she knocked twice softly to not startle the boy.

"Bear, please open the door. I have your favorites with me, baby."

There was absolute silence, but then the door opened slowly to reveal a red and puffy-eyed Taehyung. Heejin went inside the room after closing the door. She then put aside the tray on the nightstand and softly grabbed her bear's hand. She noticed how he flinched slightly when she grabbed his hand, and it hurt her to know that he hadn't gotten over those incidents. She sighed and cupped his face, ignoring the flinch.

"Baby, you know that what that ignorant boy said wasn't true, right?"

He nodded his head slightly, but his eyes were teary, so she hugged him tightly.

"Do you want to talk with your ggu hyung?" she asked, hoping maybe he'll agree to it.

"N-no, don't wa-nna m-made hi-m s-sad," he replied almost immediately. Heejin expected this answer, so she tried to cheer him up.

"Look, bear, your favorite cookies and shortcake. Eat this," she encouraged gently. But to her surprise, Taehyung didn’t even glance at her. He seemed lost in deep thought, so she shook him slightly to get his attention. Then she held up the tray, watching as her bear slowly munched on the cookie holding it with both hands. This was why she was so protective of him—he was like a baby, so pure and innocent.

“Do you want to talk to your Seokie hyung, bear?” she asked softly. Seeing him nod, she dialed her boyfriend’s number and put the call on speaker when it was answered.

“Hello, Noona,” came Jungkook’s warm voice through the phone.

Taehyung exclaimed, a mix of excitement and nervousness lacing his words.

“Ggu h-hyung!!”
